Figuring out the best assisted living environment for your senior is downright terrifying! Over the past few years I have, unfortunately, had to make that tough decision for my mother, father, and mother-in-law. I've spent copious amounts of time "shopping around" for just the right fit for each of them since they all had varying degrees of needs. As each situation changed with our seniors, once again we needed to look further to make sure we were meeting all of their individual needs properly and I was so thankful and grateful when I found Allegro North Tampa. The sales professional I first met with, Stephanie, helped me get my parents settled into memory care and she was extremely efficient in making the process smooth and easy for me. As my father had to transition out to a hospital and then a hospice care facility the caregiving team at Allegro North Tampa were more like family as they helped me in each and every way during that stressful time. As it became necessary to relocate my mother-in-law from another small ALF that was not meeting her needs, I was so blessed to find Monica, as our sales professional. Monica was so precious to me personally with the meticulous way she tried her best to assist our family down to each and every detail! We needed to quickly relocate my mother-in-law and she figured out a plan so my mom and MIL could share adjoining suites and be close to one another and she made all of this happen quickly! The caregivers in memory care are absolutely fantastic! My life is so much easier because of their level of care and concern for my loved ones. These caregivers are the men and women who tirelessly give my mother & mother-in-law the type of individualized care that is desperately needed because of their level of dementia and Alzheimer's. I've witnessed so much personalized love and attention provided to our family and to the other residents and I marvel at how well the caregivers recognize when someone just needs a simple hug or a smile or a gesture of love that can change a senior's attitude in a split second. That only comes because the caregivers spend quality time interacting with the residents and actually know them as people. Transitions are never easy, but the fabulous staff at Allegro North Tampa honestly care! I cannot thank them all enough for giving to my mom and mother-in-law the love and attention as if they were all just an extended part of the family. Thanks is not enough, but our family would like to thank the Allegro North Tampa family on behalf of Doris, Aaron, and Ouida. read more
